There are several ingredients present in revitol anti-stretch mark cream, out of which two are active ingredients, namely argirelene and idebenone. Before you decide to use revitol for any purpose (it can be used as anti-stretch marks cream, anti wrinkle cream etc.) it is wise to know and learn about the product you are going to use. As there are two active or major ingredients in revitol, it is prudent to know more about these two substances.
Argirelene:
It is chemically acetyl hexapeptide-3, which are a synthetic compound and a common used ingredient in anti-wrinkle preparations. Argirelene is a peptide and very similar (in fact shortened version) to botulinum toxin commonly known as Botox (brand name) and we all are aware of the use of Botox in cosmetic industry as anti-wrinkle and anti-aging compound.
Argirelene (as well as Botox) reduce the visible lines/wrinkles that occur in the forehead and around eyes, mainly by reducing muscle contraction. If muscle contraction is reduced the muscles required for producing wrinkles and lines can not be formed normally and wrinkles can be reduced.
How safe is argirelene?
There are not many studies (post market studies) on argirelene as it is a relatively new product.
Due to lack of adequate studies, if you decide to use products containing argirelene such as Revitol anti-stretch mark creams, use them carefully and with proper caution.
Idebenone:
It is a synthetic analogue of Coenzyme Q10. Idebenone is also a new drug and not many studies are available at present. If you decide to use products containing idebenone, use them with caution.
In general it is advisable to use any new medication carefully as not many studies are usually available regarding the safety and effectiveness of a new drug/medication. Another important point regarding use of any medication is to lean about medication you are planning to use, especially if it is cosmetic product. There is no hurry, you can take your own time and learn about the product.
